Announcing the return of HCF and ZAN
« on: September 15, 2022, 07:51:54 PM »
Over the past few weeks a dedicated group of awesome individuals has been working tirelessly to launch the return of the Honolulu Control Facility (HCF) and Anchorage Air Route Traffic Control Center (ZAN), which were formerly combined as the Pacific Control Facility (PCF).
I would like to personally thank Joseph Kerr, Danny Evans, Dave Mayes, and Paul Biderman for their time, effort, and energy in creating new SOPs and setting up the structure of these two facilities.
Joseph Kerr will be overseeing operations at both facilities as the Air Traffic Manager. Dave Mayes and Paul Biderman will be the Deputy Air Traffic Manager at HCF and ZAN respectively. Danny Evans will be doing triple duty as not only the ATM at ZFW but also as the interim Training Administrator at both HCF and ZAN. Mark Mangrinch will be serving as the Facility Engineer overseeing both facilities at this time.
HCF and ZAN home controllers are granted mutual visiting for non-major designated airspace at both facilities, a greater availability of training staff, and a wider swatch of airspace in which to control. We encourage those interested in staff positions to view the recent position vacancy announcements.
